Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The SSW-103-22-G-D-VS-K-TR is a direct functional equivalent to the SSW-103-22-G-D-VS-TR. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications:

• Same connector type, position count, and pitch configuration
• Identical contact material, finish, and current rating
• Matching operating temperature range and flammability rating
• Equivalent RoHS and moisture sensitivity compliance

The primary difference between these parts is packaging format: the main part is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, while the substitute is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) format. The substitute includes pick-and-place feature designation, indicating suitability for automated assembly processes.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the SSW-103-22-G-D-VS-TR and SSW-103-22-G-D-VS-K-TR are active production parts with full ROHS3 compliance and identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on packaging and assembly process requirements:

• SSW-103-22-G-D-VS-TR (Tape & Reel): Suitable for high-volume automated assembly with continuous reel feeding
• SSW-103-22-G-D-VS-K-TR (Cut Tape): Suitable for pick-and-place automation or lower-volume manual assembly processes

Both parts maintain equivalent performance across all operating conditions, compliance certifications, and reliability parameters.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are these parts electrically interchangeable? A: Yes. Both parts have identical electrical specifications including current rating (4.7A per contact), operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C), and contact material composition.

Q: What is the difference between Tape & Reel and Cut Tape packaging? A: Tape & Reel (TR) packaging supplies components on a continuous reel suitable for automated high-speed assembly lines. Cut Tape (CT) packaging provides components in individual tape segments, suitable for pick-and-place systems or manual assembly processes.

Q: Can I substitute SSW-103-22-G-D-VS-K-TR for SSW-103-22-G-D-VS-TR in my design? A: Yes, provided your assembly process is compatible with Cut Tape packaging. The electrical and mechanical specifications are identical, and both parts meet the same compliance standards.

Q: Are there any mechanical compatibility concerns? A: No. Both parts have identical dimensions, pitch spacing (0.100"), row configuration, and mounting specifications. They are mechanically interchangeable.

Q: What is the pick-and-place feature mentioned for the substitute part? A: This designation indicates the part is optimized for automated pick-and-place assembly equipment, which is standard for Cut Tape packaging formats.
